Decent Dock for MBA 2015

[ivanwi11iams]

Has anyone got a decent 'dock' for a MBA 2015?
I am looking for one that holds the power and HDMI. Thus having only one cable connected to the MBA.

Failing that, I have to figure out some very good cable management for my desk. I cannot stand cables everywhere. And with the MBA 2015 having the power connection on one side, then HDMI on the opposite side, it does not help for good cable management.

I know, there are more important things to worry about right now, but...

Hey there.. I have what you have.. I was able to find an OWC Thunderbolt 2 dock. 1 cable from Thunderbolt 2 port on Air to dock. You do, of course, also have to have a power cable for your Air, and the dock itself. Air does not get powered from dock. OWC TB2 docks are very hard to come by. I had to drive 2 hrs 1 way to get this one, and it wasn't real cheap either. Works great!

Thanks for the info.

Coincidently, I was just on the OWC website and was curious about how said dock would power the MBA.
Since the dock does not power the MBA, I might simply figure out a decent cable management (and MBA location on my desk), setup. A shame really, because the newer MBA's seem to have two USB C ports on the same side. Giving one more options...

I've never used or seen this specific model but the 2015 15" MacBook Pro one instead and absolutely loved it. You click your MacBook Pro/Air in and use the lever to close the latch and lock it in place. Works like a charm.
